Just tried to remove the OEM shiftknob. Wouldn't budge. I'm going to have to try it in the morning with someone else to help me. How easy is it to screw up the linkage if you arent holding under the boot properly(and what exactly would the results be)?

Hmmm. Need help man?

I was able to put three NISMO wheels on the Z today. The fourth is forthcoming as I couldn't get one of my winter wheels (the SP wheels) off; I think it's because one of the (new) guys at the tire shop I usually goto for my tire swaps, bolted the lug nuts on waaaayyyyy too tight. In fact, the top of the wheel lock straight up broke off sometime in the past two weeks, so I've gotta get that fixed, too.

I think I'm going to have my dad help me in the morning when I can pull the car out of the garage and have someone sit in the passenger seat to help


That really blows about the rims. :(

Shouldn't be too difficult to fix, though - it's just annoying. I might come out to the meet on Wednesday pending how my schedule on Tuesday unfolds. Are you going out?

Nick911sc 03-03-2012 10:04 PM

If the weathers nice I just might try to make an appearance :)

Curious to ask you guys... How many o rings is it supposed to come with? There's only 1...

I didn't have trouble when removing my OEM shift-knob, but yes, they are freaking tight.

ARK exhaust installed today! Had it installed professionally. The packaging was excellent. Fitment was a little rough. Overall, VERY satisfied. It sounds and looks awesome.

I didn't notice any difference on neither the exhaust or intake sound when I put in the K&N Drop-in. Maybe you pay more attention on it now than before?? :icon17:

The burnt tips and mufflers really look good on your car, great wife!

My wife would try to sell my exhaust behind my back lol.

I finished one of the headlights today

Blacked out, matched the projector shroud and turn signal shroud to the 40th color, hard to tell in pics. Went back and forth on using VHT night shade on the turn signal but just left it stock orange
